Helmina says: "Hi, everybody! I'm Helmina and I'm a rottweiler
puppy. I used to live on a farm in a place called Tennessee with
goats and racehorses until this nice lady came and got me. She says
she's my new mommy, and we live in an apartment in Raleigh, North
Carolina. I have a new big sister named Stella. She's a chocolate
beagle and she's pretty fun to play with. Sometimes she even lets
me bite her tail or her ears. Mommy says I have a new daddy, too,
but he's in some place called Iraq and should be home in a couple
of weeks. I can't wait to play with him! My favorite thing to do
play with mommy's old knitting projects. Yarn sure is tangley! I
hope you like my pictures."

Helmina-You are such a beautiful girl. Looks like your sister isn't too sure about you being around. Don't worry, she will come around soon. Keep your Mom company until Dad comes home. And when he comes home, give him a big sloppy thank you kiss for his service.

Awe, you are so precious, I'm just melting!!!!! Big doggies are the best! I adore your eyes, they are so sweet and soulful! I hope your daddy makes it home safely. We are all very proud of him. You are very blessed.

Helmina - what a great name! I'm sure her daddy will be excited to meet her! I love how in the first few pics she's getting into stuff, playing, chewing, bugging her big sister... and then suddenly she's conked out sleeping. Just like a puppy! Play hard, sleep hard. She's a cutie for sure!

OMG SHE IS ADORABLE!! when i have the place for it i am soo getting a rottie!! she is just precious..and your husband is just gonna love her when he gets home..Thank him for all he does!! he is brave for serving his country! and give Helmina a big hug and kiss for me!

What a gorgeous little girl! Have fun with her and let her daddy know how much we appreciate his service! I am sure he will love getting photos of his new big girl!!!! Kisses and biscuits to Helmina and Stella. Extra thanks to you and your family for your service to this country.

Wow. A super rottie pup! She's gorgeous, cute and beautiful. I love her. What a great doggie. The pic of her upside down with her ears flying playing with Stella is the best. Really put a smile on my face this morning. :)

Congratulations on your soldier coming home. I am grateful for his service to our country. He's going love this pup. Very happy for you all!

Helmina you are the most beautiful rotty puppy I have ever seen. I gave you a whole box of dog biscuits. Your mom must be so happy. When Dad gets home he is going to fall in love with his little girl on first site. Stella must be so happy to have a <little sister> though not for long. You are going to be a real big girl soon.It was so nice to meet you, now you keep a good eye on the house and watch mommy good til Daddy get's home. Bye Sweet heart.

Congrats - she is beautiful!! My rottie just turned 10. Ask your vet about giving her glucosamine - they are prone to ACL problems (my dog had ACL repair on both knees, but the gluc. helps!!!) Good luck with her. I'm sure she'll make you very happy.

Helmina - you are one beautiful pup.....you remind me of my Sasha - one of the best dog's I've ever owned. You keep Mommy company till Daddy comes home. When your Daddy gets home - you be sure to give him lots of extra hugs and kisses from all of us!! God Bless You All!

Congrats on your beautiful rottie! That breed has been wonderful for our family! Get the "Carl" books to read to both your sweet doggies & they will love it!
ps. I LOVE the picture where she is 'softening' her big sister's collar!!!

How cute!!! I have a rottie girl and she is AWESOME the best pets ever! Just wait until shes older...her love will only grow!! I will probably own a rottie for the rest of my life! Ur puppy is beautiful!! it makes me smile everytime i see one of these adorable dogs!

You take care of Mommy and Stella baby girl....Daddy will be home soon and he is gonna love you to bits!!
But...ya gotta share your Mommy with Daddy....lol
Best wishes for a happy life to all of you!!!!
Boo's Momma Jane;)

Whew, I'm exhausted from going "Awwwwww" so many times as I scrolled through your pictures, Helmina!

I didn't think I was a big rottie fan until I saw your precious face and those eyes...OMG, those EYES!!!!! And those soft little black toe-pads that show when you're snoozing - I'd love to just snuzzle you all day!

Helmina, are you shredding that paper for Daddy's ticker tape parade when he returns from Iraq? You are both smart and beautiful - happy lives to you all and you are definitely to be rewarded with as many biscuits as caninely possibly.

Helmina, you be sure to give your Daddy lots and lots of puppy kisses when he gets home. You may have to stand in line behind Mommy though. Be sure and tell him that all of us doggie lovers out here love him and are praying for him and all of his fellow soldiers. As for you, little one, I think you lucked out with a great hom!

awwwww! She is so cute. She has the sweetest face. She is going to be such a big girl. Pretty soon "big" sister is going to have to look up to "little" sister. Wait till Daddy sees the newest edition to the family. She'll have him wrapped around her "little" paw! LOL!

so adorable! I love rottweilers they are so sweet and awesome! Daddy is going to absolutly love her! And i hope he comes home soon to see this cute puppy waiting for him! I absolutly love the pic of her grabbing onto Stella's collar. i laughed out loud! i can always count on puppies to give me a good laugh!

I am an owner of 3 Rotties, and we have had many puppies, boy do they bring a smile to your face every day, our litters were up to 12 at a time, also caring for 3 adults crazy here but when they go, boy do we miss them so. Enjoy your puppy what a bundle of joy.

OH MY GOSH!!!! We have a Beagle & a Rottie, too! Your babies are wonderful. Our Rottie is older but the Beagle younger, but best of friends! How ironic! Our Beagle is older than our Rottie but only by 8 mths. I just love them at this age. Rotties are amazing! Your baby is going to be BEAUTIFUL!

awww she is such a sweet heart!! hey Helmina!! i have a friend for you!! my little rotties girl pup called honey!! you 2 would b gr8 friends!! im lovin ur pic where you look as though your waiting for somehting- maybe you cant wait to see your daddy?? im sure your parents are very proud of you Helmina and especially daddy- we are all proud of him

She looks a lot like our little puppy, a boy ten weeks old. Nice dogs, aren't they. Aekre, a very old Norwegian name (from Greek) likes to play with his toy duck, but flies are very interesting objects when he is out in the garden. We saw hwlmina on "The Daily Puppy", on Aekres blog.
